such an establishment, or, in the case of imported articles which
are not at such an establishment, after their entry into the United
States. This chapter shall not preclude any State or Territory or
the District of Columbia from making requirement or taking other
action, consistent with this chapter, with respect to any other
matters regulated under this chapter.
